Penguins recover missing Jaromir Jagr bobbleheads, announce distribution plan
View Date:2024-12-24 21:07:14
The Pittsburgh Penguins say they have recovered a missing truckload of Jaromir Jagr bobbleheads and they plan to start distributing them at the team's upcoming home game on April 6.
After retiring Jagr's No. 68 jersey in February, the team had planned a bobblehead giveaway with Jagr in attendance on March 14. However, the shipment didn't arrive in time for the game, and the team distributed vouchers that fans could redeem for their bobblehead at a later date.
According to the Penguins' website, "a special cargo recovery team negotiated the return of the stolen property" and the truckload arrived in Pittsburgh on Monday.
Penguins president of business operations Kevin Acklin said the team was "a victim of cargo theft" when the bobbleheads turned up missing earlier this month.
The team then released a teaser video with Jagr and one of the bobbleheads setting off to "go find your friends."

The team did not identify the Jagr-heister, but said fans will be able to redeem vouchers for the bobbleheads at the April 6 home game against the Tampa Bay Lightning or by visiting a drive-through pickup station at PPG Paints Arena the following day.
